THUNDER BAY -- One of two suspects charged in a homicide investigation appeared in court Thursday.

Becky Mamakwa, 21, and Carl Spencer Rae, 31, were both charged with aggravated assault in the alleged robbery and assault of 52-year-old Christopher Adams on July 1 outside of city hall on the corner of Donald and May Streets.

Mamakwa appeared in person at the Thunder Bay Courthouse Thursday afternoon where she was remanded until Aug. 8, when it is expected a date for a bail hearing will be set.

The homicide investigation began after Adams died at Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre July 8.

City police confirmed Thursday the charges have not been upgraded at this time and police are still looking for two other males, considered by investigators to be persons of interest in the case.
